I recently bought two used cornies. I pressure tested one by bringing the pressure up to twenty pounds and placed a guage to monitor and over the next three days watched the pressure drop to eight pounds. Obviously a leak somewhere and will go through the usual procedures to figure out where it is.
The second keg I did the same bringing the pressure up to twenty pounds and placed a pressure gauge to monitor pressure. Over the last two days the pressure has only dropped one pound.
Here is the question. When you pressure check a corny should it be empty? The first keg was half fulll of water and the second one had about one gallon of water in it. Does having water in it effect the pressure? Will the pressure drop if you do?
Thanks for your help
